The Russian Defense Ministry stated that their withdrawal from the Kharkiv region was planned and intended to strengthen the grouping in Donbass.
The US Department of Defense says Russian troops in the Kharkiv region are withdrawing across the state border and into the Russian Federation. This was reported on Monday, September 12, by Reuters and CNN, citing their sources.
At the same time, senior Pentagon officials noted that “Ukrainians have achieved success in the struggle for liberation and return of territory in the south and east.”
“Near Kharkov, Russian forces largely surrendered their territorial gains to the Ukrainians and retreated north and east. Many of them crossed the Russian border,” news agencies wrote.
This statement refutes the Russian propaganda statement that the withdrawal of the invaders from the Kharkiv region was planned and intended to strengthen the group in Donbass.
In the Kherson region, according to the Pentagon, “deliberate and measured operations are taking place on the part of the Ukrainians, providing a certain moderate movement forward.”
It is known that in recent days Ukrainian forces launched a counter-offensive not only in Kherson, but also in the Kharkiv region.
It was previously reported that German Chancellor Olaf Scholz believes that the weapons transferred by Germany to Ukraine play an important role in the current events on the front.
